Patent EP-1398774-A2 (EP)
Inventor: KOJIMA YOSHIAKI
IPC: G01B15/00
Filed: 2003-09-09
Abstract: An optical disk 11 (sample) is laid on a sample moving
unit 21 within a vacuum chamber 20. An electron beam radiating
mechanism 30 radiates an electron beam to the optical disk 11
while moving the optical disk 11 at a constant speed. Electron
detecting means 27 detects an electron from the optical disk
11. Thus, the track pitch is measured on the basis of a detected
electron signal and a measured movement amount of the optical
disk 11. Also, the electron beam radiating mechanism 30 is
provided with a fast deflector 33 for averaging within a
deflection area to measure the track pitch.

Abstract: A control circuit (6) receives signals from a contactless sensor (8) near the driven member (7b) of the sawtooth clutch (7) and controls the current to the drive motor (1) and an electromagnetic coil (9) surrounding a magnetic clutch (5). This clutch drives the driving portion (7a) of the sawtooth clutch.  The angle (alpha) of the drive surfaces (10) of the clutch is chosen so that the driven member is pushed away (X) from the drive member when a torque (M) is applied to the clutch. The magnetic clutch exerts a force (F) which resists disengagement of the clutch up to a given torque value. The clutch drives a reduction gear (2), a chuck (3) and a boring tool (4).
